ILIndoor.com: Breaking, Bandits acquire Hopcroft

We at ILIndoor have found out that the Buffalo Bandits have acquired righty forward Derek Hopcroft from the Colorado Mammoth for a conditional 5th round draft pick. The story, which I tweeted out (@SteveILIndoor for all of you not following me yet) this morning was confirmed around 3pm on Tuesday.

The Bandits have made a lot of trades this offseason, including trading Jeremy Thompson to the Edmonton Rush for Aaron Wilson last month. Speculation would have it that the Bandits are trying to fill the right-handed void left by holdout Luke Wiles.
